Graeme Lumsden, Estate Agency Director/Valuer at BLACK HAY comments -
" In my view the allure of a seafront home and its ever changing sea views remains unmatched. After 35 years in the property industry my heart still skips a beat when I arrive at a seafront home and catch sight of the sea views which the owners can sometimes grow familiar with ...yet, perhaps with my family connection to the Mull of Kintyre I yearn to live by-the-sea ...many an hour immersed in the changing seascape ...and when you need to actually feel/breathe the sea at Cladach ...unlock the gate at the end of the garden and literally a pebble's throw away... the sand dunes beckon, and you are there ...walking the beach, whatever the weather ...water rippling or white-horses racing ashore on stormy days.
I live in the country with wonderful views, cows with their inquisitive heads looking over the hedges and a red squirrel that visits most days ...yet, what would I give for a home by-the-sea? The successful buyer of Cladach will, in my humble opinion ...be living their dream (and mine!) "

The added bonus is also visiting/valuing & indeed selling all sorts of different styles/values of home ...including some very Special Homes which instantly catch my attention, indeed it can be hard not to imagine myself buying/living in a particular home.
The Dhorlin is one such home, a spectacular home, yet for me it's the magical combination of the subtle traditional exterior which conceals the spectacular contemporary interior, one which can accommodate couples or families and offers sought after flexibility ...one that you won't want to leave when you come home ...a Special Home that the successful purchaser should be over the moon to own!

The property has been built centrally amidst its larger plot/garden, favourably set back from the road back whilst still providing a surprisingly larger rear garden - likely to be of particular appeal to the family buyer or those yearning for a home which they can successfully extend to to create their own unique living space (subject to acquiring planning permission etc).
The main entrance is onto a welcoming reception hall, from there access to ground floor apartments or via the bannister staircase to the upper apartments. On the ground floor - an impressively proportioned bay windowed formal lounge to the front, directly behind a dining/family room (or alternative 4th bedroom), to the rear - the kitchen (door off to the rear garden/garage access) whilst a small room adjacent could be utilised as a breakfasting room/study or perhaps be developed as part of a new kitchen layout (subject to acquiring planning etc).
The accommodation on the upper level comprises, 3 bedrooms with the "master" bedroom (No 1) being bay windowed to the front (necessity meant an en-suite was created within this room however visually it does currently detract from what is a fine bedroom), whilst bedroom Nos 2 & 3 are situated to the front & rear respectively. The main bathroom is situated off the half-level landing. A useful small "downstairs" wc is situated to the rear on the ground floor.
Gas central heating is featured. Attic storage is available with an access ladder tucked within the upper landing cupboard. The private gardens are well established with mature trees/shrubs/flowers, semi-screened to the front with lawn bordered by the private driveway which leads to a garage positioned to the side. To the rear, the main lawn is of good size with useful outbuildings/stores, whilst a further "hidden" lawn is tucked behind, a real & pleasant surprise allowing both imagination & reality to play.
Prestwick remains very popular with its thriving town centre and coastal location. With Glasgow approx' 30 miles away Prestwick properties are particularly popular with Glasgow based buyers relocating (knowing the value of these style of homes in Glasgow!) ...those commuting to Glasgow either by car (the A77 easily accessible from Prestwick) or by the popular train/bus service from Prestwick to Glasgow ...and of course local buyers seeking a larger family proportioned home within easy walking distance of the seafront.
Graeme Lumsden, Director/Valuer of BLACK HAY ESTATE AGENTS comments...
" Throughout my 36 years in the property industry I have enjoyed valuing/selling an enviable variety & number of homes, in particular Traditional Homes which remain highly sought after.
Substantial traditional homes in Prestwick are indeed rare to the market. In my view... No 61 St Quivox Road is a special home for a number of reasons, to me it is a classic Glasgow Buyer Traditional Home however it enjoys the more appealing setting of Prestwick with its desirable seaside location, additionally it offers the successful buyer real potential to create a spectacular home with its larger internal proportions & outdoor space.
In my view... it will be a very lucky & delighted buyer who secures this Special Home. "
